Why should it be # 1?...

Because chicks dig the car.

Sorry, wrong movie.

It should be #1 because it was the first car I remember seeing on the TV.

So the Lambo from the Italian Job that died in the first couple of miutes did make the list but the mini's didn't ? Also missed some cool cars from "running on empty" (the Australian movie , not the River Phoenix one :) ).

Here's some more...

Beverly Hillbillies '21 Olds Truck;

"the Saint" - Roger Moore's Volvo;

Chrysler Imperial from the short-lived TV series "the Hero";

60s Galaxie from "The Andy Griffith Show";

How about the custom Olds Toronado from the detective show "Mannix"

Lastly, did anyone mention the Monkeemobile?

It was the 1st car YOU saw on TV... But you didn't make this current list....

Why should it be # 1?? It's not even a real or normal car. No-one could go down to their local dealership & buy 1. It's a pure fantasy car, not realistic. Whereas the General Lee WAS/IS real. You COULD go down to your local dealership & buy a Dodge Charger. Not only does it deserve its No # 1 spot here but it also claimed the No #1 spot in ( a few years back ) Hot Rod Magazine's Top 100 Most Influential Cars of ALL time, voted on by well known & respected members of the World's car fraternity.... You gotta respect that list.

Huh??? :blink:

Who said anything about it being "real" or "normal" or that you should be able to buy one at a dealership? Where do you get that from??? I doubt you could go to the local dealership and buy Chitty Chitty Bang Bang or James Bond's tricked-out Aston Martin or a talking Trans Am like Knight Rider's KITT... all of which are on the list.

The list is supposedly the "greatest" TV and movie cars. Whether the car is "real" or not has absolutely nothing to do with anything.

My thought exactly!

The article... written by a 20 year old female summer intern with a 2 hour deadline. Heck, I'm a car guy and there's cars in there I never saw before!

That Toyota 4x4 at #29!!! That thing was way cool, looks pretty similar to my 1:1 except mine is an 86 and blue.

I agree with you Harry. It doesn't matter whether they made a million of them, or it is the only one in existence... It's the style and the lines of the vehicle that makes one love it! I love the '66 Futura! :wub:

First one I REMEMBER. I'm sure I saw other cars on the idiots lantern before The Batmobile but it was the one that stuck.

What about the Murf Mobile from Wayne's World? Or Ponch's firebird from CHIP's? The Turbo Interceptor from the Wraith?

Posted

I'd forgotten that. It looked so much better as the Catwomanmobile.

NOT.

How about Lady Penelopes FAB1 (TV series not the poor excuse for a movie)? Not only was it a TV car but also a model.

Then there was the racing striped GNX Damien Lewis drove in LIfe and has anyone brought up the Supernaturally creaky doored Impala (or is it on the list - I can't be bothered to go through it again - too much dross).
